Ay, mi amor, me haces malAlas my love you do me wrong
Al despreciarme descortésmenteTo cast me off discourteously
Y te he amado por tanto tiempoAnd I have loved you oh so long
Disfrutando de tu compañíaDelighting in your company
Verde esmeralda era mi deleiteGreensleeves was my delight
Verde esmeralda, mi corazón de oroGreensleeves my heart of gold
Verde esmeralda era mi alegríaGreensleeves was my heart of joy
Y quién sino mi dama Verde esmeraldaAnd who but my lady Greensleeves

He estado listo a tu disposiciónI have been ready at your hand
Para conceder lo que desearasTo grant whatever thou would'st crave
He apostado tanto la vida como la tierraI have waged both life and land
Tu amor y buena voluntad para tenerYour love and goodwill for to have
Verde esmeralda era mi deleiteGreensleeves was my delight
Verde esmeralda, mi corazón de oroGreensleeves my heart of gold
Verde esmeralda era mi alegríaGreensleeves was my heart of joy
Y quién sino mi dama Verde esmeraldaAnd who but my lady Greensleeves

Con oro bordado magníficamenteWith gold embroidered gorgeously
